2 minutes had passed, and Abel had lost count of how many arrows he had shot. Suddenly, he saw a large number of wolf rider corpses in front of him. It turned out that he had led the entire team of wolf riders in a circle.
Just when Abel was about to rush into the corpses, he suddenly sensed a chill in his intuition. He quickly swapped out his "iron" sword and "ancient pledge" shield.
"Boom!" A wolf rider's corpse suddenly exploded, and a wave of violent fire elements rushed towards him.
The "ancient pledge" shield in his hand blocked most of the impact, and his powerful vitality blocked the rest of the attack.
However, the mount wolf king under him couldn't help but let out a cry. Abel's shield only protected his body and part of the mount wolf king's body. The "corpse explosion" spell did damage the mount wolf king, but it was not enough to stop it from running.
"Not good, I've been tricked!" Abel screamed in his heart. He had underestimated the orcs. These orcs seemed to know he had terrifying archery skills, so they used the wolf riders he killed to set this trap.
At this point, there were corpses all around Abel, and 20 priests had completely surrounded this area.
The orcs had the help of the Cyan Falcon, so they had a clear grasp of Abel's direction. By constantly pressuring Abel, Abel had no choice but to constantly change his direction until Abel had circled around the orc battlefield and returned to the original battlefield.
The place was filled with the corpses of the wolf riders that Abel had killed with his "Riphook" spell. The priests had been waiting for a long time, and they had set up a 300 meter radius encirclement.
If it wasn't for the fact that it was night and visibility was low, it would be impossible for him to be surrounded by them.
On the other hand, he knew that there would be reinforcements, but he ignored the slyness of the orcs. If he had been fighting alone without reinforcements in five minutes, he would definitely not have led the orcs to stall for time on this battlefield.
He didn't expect to drag the orcs out until reinforcements arrived. Instead, he had dragged himself into this encirclement.
At this time, the Wolf Cavalry Regiment had already begun to set up the outermost encirclement. It seemed like they were preparing to use a large number of troops to surround him so that he could not escape.
The orcs were very experienced in dealing with human wizards. Just by looking at the range of their encirclement, one could tell that Abel had calculated it very carefully. If he had used a 'move in a flash' scroll, it would have been very impressive for him to move 200 meters at most.
This three hundred meter radius encirclement was just enough to eliminate any hope of him activating the 'instantaneous movement' scroll.
While Abel was thinking about how to break out, the orc priests didn't give him time to think. Several orc priests raised their bone staffs and magic runes flashed on them.
Boom! Boom! Boom! The corpses around Abel began to explode.
Abel immediately put the mount wolf king back into his monster ring. If he left the mount wolf king here, it would be killed by the fire elemental attack.
He used the 'ancient pledge' shield to protect his body. Since the explosions came from all directions, it was very difficult to defend against all of them with just one shield.
Therefore, he could only choose to block in the direction where the explosions were the heaviest. As for the less lethal attacks, he could use his defensive spells and passive defensive magic items to block them.
Abel could clearly sense that the 'corpse explosion' unleashed by the gray-robed priest riding a skeleton beast was the most powerful. After two 'corpse explosions', this priest had also unleashed a 'poison explosion'. A large amount of poisonous fog rose up from the encirclement.
Abel had never been in such a bad situation before. Although the explosions were fierce, he could still dodge most of the heaviest attacks and block some of them. However, he also had to take a lot of fire elemental attacks.
Soon, his defensive spells and passive defensive magic items were broken through. He could only rely on his own body to defend.
The poisonous fog soon dyed his body green. However, his body was very good at suppressing the poisonous elements caused by the 'poison explosion'. On top of that, his' secret 'armor had a + 30% poison resistance effect, and his' ancient pledge 'shield had a + 48% poison resistance effect.
Although his body had turned green due to the poisonous fog, the actual damage done to him was very low.
As the explosions continued, the 'corpse explosion' blasted large amounts of dry soil into the air, forming a cloud of dust. At the same time, the 'poison explosion' also covered the green poisonous fog above the encirclement.
The explosions ended after the last corpse turned into a pile of dust and poisonous fog. Abel's figure could no longer be seen.
The priests around were not worried. They believed that the wizard would not be able to escape under such an attack. Even if he was not dead, he should be severely injured.
They were waiting for the dust to dissipate.
At this moment, a scout riding a wolf galloped to the gray-robed priest's side and shouted, "Sir, the human reinforcements are approaching!"
"Pass down my order. Send 5000 wolf riders to stall them. No matter what!" The priest said to the scout.
"Yes, sir!" The wolf rider scout replied loudly and turned his mount wolf to charge towards the wolf rider corps.
Soon, half of the wolf riders that surrounded Abel rushed towards a direction and gradually disappeared into the night.
"Send the skeletons in and find him!" The priest lowered his voice.
More than 100 skeletons rushed out from behind the 20 priests. They directly rushed into the poisonous fog and began to search for Abel.
By that point, Abel had already put on the invisibility cloak and disappeared from the spot.
A small area was quickly searched, but the skeletons still couldn't find Abel.
"We can't wait any longer. Let's go in and find him. If he's dead, I want to see his body!" The priest yelled to the priests around him.
The priest knew he didn't have much time left. According to the rules of the orc battlefield, the humans were on par with him. 5000 wolf riders could only stall them for a short period of time. He needed to find the human wizard as soon as possible and end this operation.
By that point, Abel's body was covered in burn marks. His rune word armor was covered in black and gray burn marks. Even the mask on his face was the same.
Actually, his internal injuries were not light. He only recovered with the help of a bottle of 'full recovery potion.' However, there was no way he could recover from this mess.
Abel kept reflecting on his mistakes in this battle. He knew he had underestimated the orcs. If they were so easy to deal with, they would have been wiped out by the humans a long time ago.
He had always had a one-sided battle record against the beastmen, which made him look down on the beastmen in his heart.
However, reality had taught him a lesson, and his current sorry state was the best lesson for him.
However, the anger in his heart was still burning. He also heard the priest's words, and his face under the mask turned cold.
"Since you like poison so much, I'll add something to it for you!" Abel thought to himself. He took out a bottle of green potion that was flashing with blue lightning from his portal bracelet.
It was a spoil of war he got when he first entered the battlefield. He then synthesized a blue quality potion with the Hradik cube.
He opened the bottle and poured the green potion into the air. He then reached out with a strand of dark golden combat qi and scattered the green potion into the green poisonous fog.
The priest walked into the fog. He could only see a few meters of dust and poisonous fog. His' poison explosion 'couldn't hurt him. He also used his power of the will to mark all the priests who entered the poisonous fog so they wouldn't be hurt by his poison elements.
In his mind, catching Abel was a piece of cake. Even an intermediate wizard couldn't survive that explosion, let alone a beginner wizard. Even if Abel had a lot of life-saving items on him, he would still be badly injured.
